[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I moved some apps to the SD Card using the applications menu on Sense. I restored a backup but those apps did not come back. How do I bring them back, reinstall them?

--------

Edit. I solved it!
[Captivate General] thehyecircus:
My SD (the one on the Android, not the SD Card, why the hell did they name it SD?!) is full of junk. In fact, it comes with a load of junk by default.

How do I:

1. Get Android to not pull videos, pictures, and music from games? My gallery, video player, doubletwist, etc is full of stuff like that.

2. Know what I can delete and what I can't? I'd like to clean this place up.

3. How do I find stuff? I mean, is it up to me to make "Music" "Pictures" "Videos" folders for my own sake, and Android just looks everywhere and grabs it?

4. How do I go to my SD Card? In fact, I am 100% sure my SD card has two auto-assigned folders on it and nothing else. I have no idea how to access it or put things on it, and I am also sure my phone does not care that it exists. Obviously my phone's SD has plenty of memory on it, but I don't know why there is even a SD card slot. I was thinking of copying some files onto my SD card to put onto my friend's Android phone, but I am also positive I'd have no idea how to perform what should be a basic task.

So, help me out. What am I doing? And, what apps would I need for question four, or just file browsing apps in general.
[Captivate General] comdei:
I'm confused about what this topic is about.

All the words that would describe what he is talking about are replaced with junk and stuff.

edit: The captivate assigns the internal sd card as SD:

Delete the "junk"
[Captivate General] zelendel:
A search would have answered your questions. your SD card memory is the phones main programs memory. IT is where alot of your apps store the data. You can use many apps to as a file explorer it even comes with one. Its called My Files. I use Root Explorer which allows to access Root files and make changes to them. The sd card slot is for....wait for it.......More memory. As for it not seeing the files. there are a few music apps that let you set the folders it scans. Power Amp is the best at the moment IMHO. You can also put a file in the folders that you dont want scanned named no media, (with root explorer you can copy one of these files from the root folders if you can make one.)
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
with pre existing folders (for apps and such)

create a "new file" in it named " .nomedia " with the . (preriod)

this can be done with root explorer or in windows. create blank text document

rename

to .nomedia with NO .txt then copy and move to folders.

nothing in that folder or sub folder will be included in media scans

or if it is a personal folder you are creating name it starting with a . (period)

and ya internal SD gets messy. Use external for your files to keep organized!
[Captivate General] thehyecircus:
Wouldn't my SD card (even if it is SDHC) be slower? DoubleTwist is already inexcusably slow with my files on the SD itself, what would it be like on the external?

And yes, I know what the SD is, I was just asking why it was named that.
[Captivate General] thehyecircus:
Bumping this because I am curious about any speed differences, and because I would like my SD Card to matter.
[Thunderbolt General] ddarvish:
So my battery life sucks balls. with light to moderate use i have gone from 100% at 9am to 15% at 2:47pm. that is pretty damn horrible. using spare parts i have noticed that the uid's 0 and 1013 are using an enormous amount of network data. Something like over 400MB total since i unplugged the phone. That could be whats killing my battery life but i have no idea what the hell they are. I read other threads where the most specific they got was "media"

can anyone shed light on this?
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
uid's don't do much for us. Can you please tell us what the processes are? Not trying to bu rude, but gathering info? Also, not guaranteed, but have you used ad-blocking of any type? I tend to find some apps full a lot af data for that (rare, and usually bugs, not intentional) Or possibly you streamed audio or something and forgot? Once again, I'm going on things I have done, so not being insulting.

EDIT: UID, I typed UUID, which is unique and would have helped, but they have nothing to do with this XD
[Thunderbolt General] ddarvish:
Well unforunately i can't back out which processes are the ones using the data or tied to that uid since spare parts doesnt tell me. I do have adblocker but i wasnt using any apps that had ads in them. mostly used the music player and sent a couple texts and messages using kik. i didnt stream any music or anything else.
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
I'm not really sure of any apps that track what is using data. Possible 3g watchdog pro (the free one tracks all data, but pro may do all) I'll look around the market, but looks like most are paid apps.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] siravarice:
Hey peeps, first post here so be nice :)

When I try and update my ADB drivers fro my HTC Desire HD, and choose to select the path that the drivers are found, windows refuses to believe that the drivers are actually there, and just says that windows cannot find any drivers and was unable to install.

All I want is for this to install so that I can use DDMS to take screenshots on my device as I like to create themes and things when I'm bored, and would like to be able to show it to other people.

Really need help with this because it's getting on my nerves!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leehopley:
hey guys

any fix for gps in nightly builds?

i cant get it to work at alll :(

any help? :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] takram:
I've been using stock radio all throughout CM and the last time it worked for me was with build 4. I'm on build 28 or 29 now, but read somewhere in the thread that reflashing the stock radio worked for them, so I tried it. I am on a G2, whose stock radio is the 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M. I flashed the nightly, then reflashed the radio. I can't get a GPS lock in my house (I've been able to do it before), but I tried it a few miles away while at an In-And Out drive-thru and I got a lock within seconds and was able to use navigation just fine with voice.

G2 stock radio download link (verify this is your current radio if you're on stock)

Radio thread (instructions too - fastboot with the radio renamed on the root of sd card)

I'm not sure how this plays out in the past two nightlies, but this worked for me. You'd probably have to reflash the radio every nightly.

If you're on a Desire Z, I'd recommend checking what radio you're on and looking for it in that radio thread and trying to flash your current radio after the nightly.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leehopley:
cheers :) ill try it :) i have the europe htc desire z so ill have to find the stock radio :)

thanks!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spastic909:
Or you can use RC2....
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leehopley:
nah the rc2 doesnt work for me either :( ive tried all the nightly builds and cyanogen mod rc1 and rc2 and they dont work :( shame, the only trouble i have is with gps.

i have a question, my radio is this one:

Vision_RADIO_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26

MD5 Check Sum: CB45ED9CB543E433E49B8022FC17ACB9

from OTA Update Tmobile rom 1.22

however my phone is the desire z straight from htc, does it matter if the radio i flash is from the tmobile rom

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regalatre:
When I did mess with my radios, the GPS started working but my phone stopped recognizing HSDPA, even after going back to the stock radio. I went back to 6.1.1 then restored my previous 7 nightly. The "H" symbol came back but my GPS vanished. I did try the RIL auto-matching install, but that came up with nothing.

I'll do more searching, but this is a weird situation.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deliriousDroid:
Are you talking about cm7 nightlys? Cuz they fixed it on #29 I think. Well I have #30 nd it is working:)

Sent from my SilverBullet "HTCDesireZ running CM7"
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leehopley:
okay ill try and flash again lol

and i know its weired lol i tried using the gps status and tools but it just keeps showing the loading circle lol

ah well, its not that much of a big deal, i spose roms are developing every day so hopefully there will be a fix soon lol

thanks

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chupafaros:
I had the same problem where it would show wifi and 3g at the same time, but no internet. I tried turning the hot spot on for a few seconds then off. And then manually disconnecting from the wifi, then reconnecting to it. I seem to not be having those problems anymore. Hope it helps.

UPDATE (14th June 2011):

We are now over the 10,000 mark.​

I have now spoken with Motorola and gotten confirmation that Motorola plan to unlock every device that will get an update in the second half of this year. This will include maintenance & firmware updates, but is still subject to Carrier approval.

The promising sign is that Verizon has already allowed Motorola to unlock a device on their network, the Xoom, which utilizes the unlockable/re-lockable model that Motorola intends on using across their devices.

I'm still looking to work with Motorola in the coming months to help see if we can make this a smooth process for Motorola and the community.

You can read the article here:

http://ausdroid.net/2011/06/14/an-u...witter&utm_campaign=Feed:+ausdroid+(Ausdroid)

Please share this where you can and keep it alive. I will continue to work with Motorola to see if we can get this thing torn wide open.

UPDATE (26th April 2011):

We are now at ~8,700 mark.​

Motorola has now responded to me, stating that they are looking at unlocking bootloaders across their devices late 2011.

The article for the story can be found here:

http://ausdroid.net/2011/04/26/the-little-aussie-taking-on-motorola-u-s/#more-8184

We're still seeking clarity around whether this will be for current devices or only future devices.

I couldn't have gotten this far without the support of everyone here. You guys and girls have been a huge support and help me turn this snowball into a wrecking ball.

Please share this where you can and keep it alive. I will continue to work with Motorola to see if we can get this thing torn wide open.

Previous Update (4th April 2011):

We are now at ~7600 mark.​

We're starting to slow down from our initial boom, so I have now set up a Facebook page to see if we can wrangle in some supporters that don't use Twitter or XDA.

I will need your help getting this out there. So share the facebook page where you can.

I'm also looking to see if anyone is interested in helping me Moderate the page. Please PM if you are.

Original Post:

Hi All,

I have created a Groubal (online petition) to get a response from Motorola on it's bootloader policy.

>>This petition started for the Atrix, but I made sure that it was for Motorola's overall Bootloader Policy. I have reached 200 signatures in 2 weeks, but now believe it's time to expand this out of the Atrix space and into the larger Motorola Dev community.
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
signed. good luck!

I would say that cracking the bootloaders would be pretty impossible. 1024bit encryption is pretty tough.
[Droid 2 General] rusty815:
signed. want this locked bootloader madness to come to an end!
[Droid 2 General] bamfart:
Signed, u home we get the real keys
[Droid 2 General] JeezyMT3G:

Ok guys, we now have nearly 800 signatures, nearly 500 in one night alone.

Keep up the great work everyone, this wouldn't be going anywhere without your support.

I am pesimistic and I think Motorola will not unlock bootloaders on their devices, but signed.
[Droid 2 General] UrbanBounca:
I'm not signing the petition because I'm making a statement with my pocket. When my D2 contract is up, I won't be purchasing anymore Motorola products.
[Droid 2 General] rusty815:
Why not both? ;)
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
Unfortunately it seems other device makers are following suit with Moto, like HTC starting to lock down bootloaders. Sad sad sad.

Groubal has been attacked again!

I will update the post when they are back to normal operations.
[Droid 2 General] HerroMoto:
I'm sure this question has been asked before, but are locking these bootloaders unconstitutional? It doesn't allow us to do absolutely ANYTHING with the product that we bought. I thought I heard something about someone that might actually make a lawsuit about this.
[Droid 2 General] ikenley:
It would be great if someone with a Lawyer friend could look into that one. I read somewhere that Motorola stood by it's decision for the Droid X and as long as they release the kernel source code (which no one could do anything with anyway), they were not in breach of any open source licences.
[Droid 2 General] ikenley:
Updated OP
[Droid 2 General] silverfang77:
Signed. I wish Google would refuse to do business with manufacturers that lock the bootloader.
[Droid 2 General] ikenley:
Unfortunately that would breach the Open Source licences and open them to a whole world of hurt.

But where there is a will, there is a way.

I'm signing because I like moto phones eventhough I'm running an incredible. Would love to own a Droid 2 with full access.

Damn, thats a lot of signatures....i didnt think it would get that far. When i signed there was only like 140ish sigs.

Awesome, at least you can say you were there for the beginning.
[Droid 2 General] local_crack_dealer:
Ahh, its not even about that...been trying to pull code off the omap for a little while now. I have access to reflow station at work, but its been a slow process without pinouts and being real busy lately.

Im just happy to see the petition has gone this far. Its all about the community. I just wanna see this attitude/action against the dev community stop.

[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
h t t p://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/android-news-rumors/6888-some-food-thought-bootloaders-rooting-manufacturers-carriers.html

Seems this petition might not accomplish much if these rumors turn out to be true....
[Droid 2 General] *Luke*:
I signed immediately after reading P3Droid's article.

Part of me hopes that those rumors are true, and that what he says may happen, happens... This is why:

The number one rule of business is, "give your customers what they want".

If not Motorola, if not HTC and Samsung, SOMEONE will get it...

It seems almost inevitable that a new company will come along that promotes openness and encourages development. That company would grow by leaps and bounds almost overnight while Motorola and the gang, along with their locked bootloaders, go down in flames while we all piss on the ashes.

Maybe its a s**ty thing to say, Motorola makes good quality phones. But if they refuse to give people what they want in terms of freedom to modify their devices, and if they truly want to ignore a large and ever growing android development community, then I say, LET. THEM. FAIL.

Demand for the freedom of our devices will ring louder, and the development community will grow larger with each passing day, and I believe another company will surely step up to fill the void and embrace us, which is the second rule of business: "if you fail to satisfy your customer base, you only ensure the success of your competition."
[Droid 2 General] HerroMoto:
Yeah, but you need to also put in to perspective that we are such a small percentage of their customers we really would not even matter. Google/Android itself promotes openess, and i think Google is starting to realize that manufacturers cannot keep up with these updates because manufacturers keep adding crap to our phones and slows down development time. There needs to be more Pure 'Google Experience' devices.
[Droid 2 General] ikenley:
Updated OP.

New Facebook page!
[Droid 2 General] orkillakilla:
So after MOTO, who do we go after next? HTC or Samsung?

It would be awesome if MOTO unlocked, and the others follow suit, but fat chance of that happening.
[Droid 2 General] ikenley:
Motorola has responded, refer to Original Post.
[Droid 2 General] ikenley:
Updated OP.

Good news!

Can someone please tell me how to change the bottom icon dock using Launcher Pro?
[LG Optimus 2x] lordvesel:
Hello people, first post :)

I have this little problem that's been bothering me with my new O2X.

When restarting my phone, the SIM Toolkit service, StkAppService - com.android.stk, pops up in service manager, and seem to be running fine. After a while though, the service seem to get stuck on "restarting".

Haven't quite been able to lock down when/why. Seems to be connected to extended periods in sleep, or playing games, but this could be just random.

When shutting down the service manually, everything seems to be just fine, and it won't come back until I for some reason restart the phone again, then it it'll be back to working fine, and after a while stuck on "restarting" again.

Is this something I should care about at all? Just seems to me that having something stuck in a restart loop (could just take a really long time, not 100% sure it's actually looping yet) would drain my battery.

So, to the point. Could this be a fault of the phone itself (making it a warranty case), a bug with Android 2.2 (wait for 2.3) or an issue with my service proivider (in witch case I'll contact them)?.

Been unable to find the answer on my own, and this is my first Android-phone, so I consult you, the wizards.

Update:

Checked with a friend of mine who bought the O2X at the same time as me, and he also has StkAppService stuck on 'restarting'.

And the phone glitched out and refused to fall asleep by itself today. Restart fixed it though, haven't happened again.
[LG Optimus 2x] Wild Bill Kelso:
Another Problem with STK

My problem with STK is another one:

I have two SIM-Cards installed in a dual-SIM-Card adapter. So with stock ROM switching between both cards via STK works fine.

Now I tried several CM7-based ROMs, but with all ROMs I receive the following error massage when switching to the other SIM (translated from German to English):

We are sorry! The process com.android.phone has been unexpectedly terminated. Pleas try again later.

After that, I can enter the PIN-code of my SIM and it is activated. I´m not able to switch back, when I tap on the app-icon it switches back to home-screen.

Any solution for that? (sorry for my bad English...)
[LG Optimus 2x] Chawki:
Hi,

two years alter, I am facing the same issue, and XDA developers apparently are not working on including proper STKs with custon 4+ Android Roms.

It's a pity
